    The best moment of Vice City. Stealing a car, ripping down the highway while dialing the radio and this comes on. Pure undiluted joy.

      The first time I heard this song (and Video Killed the Radio Star), I was about to head out on a mission but decided to just roll up into an alley and listen for a while because these two songs were like nothing I'd ever heard before... then I backed out of the alley and went on a happy rampage. :)

    Mary Sandeman, better known by her stage name Aneka /əˈniːkə/ (born 20 November 1947 in Edinburgh, Scotland), is a Scottish singer.
    In 1981 she reached number one in the UK Singles Chart with her song "Japanese Boy". She was well known for the Oriental image she adopted for the song. After her brief foray into pop, she reverted to her real name and re-established herself as an accomplished singer of Scottish traditional music. This music career having begun in Scotland as a teenager and continued up until her first hit, as Mary Sandeman. It was only at the time of the 1981 hit that she changed her name.

    Brilliant idea and production. Perfect combination of oriental and European style in clothing dance and singing style. So funny so dynamic makes you woonder every second if you are looking at tv show from Japan or from a disco in Great Britain. Love it after so many years. She is sweet alert delicate and original. What can I say. I can not get enough of it. The story pretends to be a sad one but the performance leaves you with a happy feeling. Strange but not unusual for that era (The artists from various bands were smiling and seem to have fun and enjoy themselves no matter what they were singing about ...unless it was hard a rock band).

    A word of explanation, that's all
    It would stop me climbing the wall
    It's breaking up the happy home
    Mister can you tell me where my love has gone
    He's a Japanese boy
    I woke up one morning and my love was gone
    Oh, my Japanese boy
    Ooh, I miss my Japanese boy
    Was it something I've said or done
    That made him pack his bags up and run
    Could it be another he's found
    It's breaking up the happy home
    Mister can you tell me where my love has gone
    He's a Japanese boy
    I woke up one morning and my love was gone
    Oh, my Japanese boy
    Ooh, I miss my Japanese boy
    Mister can you tell me where my love has gone
    He's a Japanese boy
    I woke up one morning and my love was gone
    Oh, my Japanese boy
    Ooh, I miss my Japanese boy

    Playing Vice City as a kid hearing this song and almost 15 years later playing the Definitive Edition snd hearing this song again and forgetting about it for 15 years it brought me so much nostalgia and memories i started to cry ill never forget. Thank you Grand Theft Auto Vice City. One of the best games in the world!
